Wysdom, usually a ChattyFuckingKathy, clams up staring at my brother for help.

“For the love of cheeses,” I throw down my napkin and get out of my chair. “You big bunch of chickens. I don’t know what’s going on here, but I have a feeling I’m going to need more than one glass of wine.”

No one moves as I head toward the front door. Whoever is at the door must be close to the family because they have a code for the gate.

I swear I can hear warning sirens going off in my head as I reach the front door and turn the doorknob.

When the door opens, I’m staring into the most unforgettable blue eyes of all time. Eyes I once knew better than my own. Eyes that are frowning at me.

“Camellia?” I hear right before I faint.
